The firemen had to wear full hazmat-bio suits, including the respirator.

Reported that the lady had bed sores, was laying in her own waste, and was infested with maggots...plus there were 2 toddlers living there.

Clear lack of social involvment in families. The state obviously needs a new department in the bureaucracy that sends out social standards inspectors to every house. If strong social action had been taken earlier, we could have saved this woman from herself.

lol Just add a Fat tax, Everyone has to send in their weight to the tax man at the end of every year, and they are taxed accordingly to the amount of fat that is on their body. The fuckers should pay for their own medical treatments later in life. LIFE BE IN IT and get off your fat ass

I never had much faith in leaders. I am willing to be charged with almost anything, rather than to be charged with being a leader. I am suspicious of leaders, and especially of intellectual variety. Give me the rank and rifle every day in the week. If you go to the city of Washington, and you examine the pages of The Congressional Directory, you will find that almost all of those corporation lawyers, and cowardly politicians, members of congress, and mis-representatives of the masses --you will find that almost all of them claim , in glowing terms, that they have risen from the ranks to places of eminence and distinction. I am very glad I cannot make that claim for myself. I would be ashamed to admit I had risen from the ranks. When I rise it will be WITH the ranks, and not from the ranks.~ Eugene V. Debs

Just....ewww! Looks like her and " the neighbor" must have eaten their meala together!!! Ipso fatso there looks like she's one meal away from not being able to wipe her Big Butt either!!!I just cannot feel sorry for anyyybody that shovels food in their face the size of a dump truck then wants to know WHY they are sooo fat!!... We dont see any fat Ethiopian's around blaming it on a " thyroid problem ".If you dont have the food you cant eat...real simple.

Don't we already have a department that is suppose to do this? DHCS or something. Exactly what we need .. more governmental involvement. People just can not be trusted to take care of themselves or their own family.

Mentally ill or physically ill. I think it takes a little more than enjoying fatty food to get a person that obese. There are glandular, biochemical issues involved when a person gets that fat, as well as psychiatric ones in some cases.

The lack of compassion on these boards is shocking. Maybe some of the more self-righteous ones here should take a look at themselves in the mirror.

I've seen people 400 pounds plus, (up close),and it is not a pretty sight. One person had wounds that could not heal due to lack of circulation (he weighed over 500 lbs), and another who couldn't breathe without supplemental oxygen. They had so many health problems they practically lived in the hospital. They also had those motorized scooters to get around in. Insane, the government pays for it all via Medicaid. BTW, they were both under 50 years old.

Stories like these that provide all of the gory details (like "maggot-infested", "weighing 500 pounds", and "lying in her waste") are meant to ridicule the person being reported about and to provoke cruel reactions. Did we really need to know her weight, or that she was lying in feces and covered in maggots? No. This story was published simply to get the reaction it's gotten. Don't blame the readers for the response that was intended (revulsion and ridicule). Blame the publishers for provoking that response.

Boo Hoo. She didn't get that way in a year. She was obviously fat prior to the accident. Then gave up.

I have seen people like that in my ex job. You can't get them to do anything. I can see how after a while the family gave up. People without proper training cannot cope with that. You have to be able to move people to clean them. Have proper beds and a little cooperation.

Shw was probably supposed to be going to rehab and getting exercise and doing stuff and just let it all go.

You can't help people if they give up on themselves. You can't blame the toddlers too young. You can't even blame the teenager. The Husband. Different Story. In way over his head and should of had her committed. Then again it becomes the states problem

Obesity is huge in the Developed World.Obese cost 10 times more over the span for health Care than the rest do.

Obese are also less productive at work and cost there emplyers and take more sick days.

Unless thereare underlying proven medical conditions they should have to pay for being that way. Pay Extra for Medical. They should do somthing like paying incentives and pay less for those that keep themselves at the proper weight to inspire people to stay healthy.

She did it too herself. Her back wasn't broke and there was no reason to stay in bed with those kinds of injurys period.
